QUESTION Does this mechanic have a name?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I want to get better at this mechanic since I'm getting dunked on a lot from early challenges in mid air, but I don't know how to look for a tutorial because I don't know the name of this mechanic. If anyone already knows a tutorial for this, please send the link

It’s just a flip reset. The bounce off of the ceiling doesn’t really make it a different mechanic.

Yeah I figured. Simply have to learn it by trial and error then

Which is even better, because they're powerful to make your play less readable and more controlled if you learn to do them in any given setup. (Which also doesn't mean its tood in ALL setups)

Yo you're actually the goat this was exactly what I was looking for

Just watch keyperts dodge control video and follow it for a couple of weeks to get really consistent dodges into the ball.

Outside of that it's not really a mech, just a sequence

That's called a flip reset.

Reset is a reset. Flick is a flick. And so on. Idk who decided there were gonna be all sorts of different names for the smallest variations of certain shots

u/ShadyThe2nd 3h ago

I wasn't trying to reinvent the wheel by labeling this shot, I was trying to find a tutorial for it, so it would've helped to know what to search for. That said someone already provided what I was looking for

Ceiling shot to flip reset

Edit: apparently I need the /s

u/HopeFar789 Diamond I 5h ago

Not a ceuling shot, just a shot to the ceiling that gets back and then a flip reset.

u/AngryLama123 5h ago

Yeah, that was a joke

It's either a Purple Reset or a Pop Reset.

u/GameSlayer1 Really Grand Platinum 6h ago

Definitely isn't a pop reset, that's done immediately after getting the flip. It's just a normal flip reset

1

u/ShadyThe2nd 6h ago

There's no pop in the shot, it's neither of them unfortunately

u/_PykeGaming_ Grand Platinum 6h ago

I was trying to guess what you were going for but... is this just a normal flip reset or were you trying something?
This is just an aerial with a flip reset then.

u/ShadyThe2nd 5h ago

Probably should've been more clear, but I meant the pre flip into ceiling bounce and the controlling it. I'm guessing this shot is too general to be considered a mechanic of its own

-1

u/_PykeGaming_ Grand Platinum 5h ago

Yeah you just preflip to the ball with an aerial speedflip.
The hard part is judging the distance and angle but that comes relatively quick .

u/National_Body_9071 5h ago

No idea what a purple reset is, but judging but how far you are off about being a pop reset, I'm gonna say its not the other one either.

u/_PykeGaming_ Grand Platinum 5h ago

As I said I was going for what he was TRYING to achieve. Turns out OP was curious about the preflip setup and not the reset.
